What are the six types of simple machines and describe the meaning of each simple machines?

Answer:
The six simple machines are wedge, inclined plane, screw, the wheel and axle,lever and the pulley are the six simple machines.

The inclined plane (you'll see why I started with this first) is simply a ramp or slope that reduces the amount of effort force needed to move the load.

The wedge is two inclined planes put together back-to-back.

A screw is an inclined plane wrapped around a rod.

The wheel and axle is a circle attached to a rod.

A lever is a simple machine consisting of a rigid bar pivoted on a fixed point, called the fulcrum, and used to transfer the effort force in order to raise the load. There are three levers: Class 1,2,and 3.

Last but not least, the pulley is a grooved wheel with a rope or chain running through it. There are two types of pulleys: fixed and moveable. There are two systems, both consisting of pulleys: the block and tackle and compound pulley.

Hope this helped!
